A big big thank you to everyone who played along with our 5th Birthday challenge!

We have more sad news this week with the announcement that our wonderful Camilla S and Debbie D are also stepping down from our DT. Both Camilla and Debbie have been part of our little family for almost 4 years and it is another huge loss. We will miss them both terribly. Thank you both so much for everything you have done for us over the years. Your commitment and dedication are very much appreciated. We send lots of love and hugs their way xxxx

We have also decided to put our little FB challenge on hold for a while. This means that we now have TWO sponsors per challenge here at our blog challenges - how cool is that? One winner will be chosen by the DT and one will be RANDOM, making it fair for all entering our little challenge here. We're quite excited to be able to do this as every single entry here at MDUC deserves to be a winner.

You must have at least one Magnolia stamp or Doo Hickey die on your work, it can be a sentiment, background etc does NOT have to be Edwin or Tilda for your card to be entered..

You must add your link in Mr.Linky

You MUST add a link to your **direct blog post***.... All entries not doing this will be removed.

You should have a link back to the challenge blog in your post.

Entries close 8:00am Saturday AES time (see the clock on the side bar)

DO NOT link your entry to an old card, even a day before will be removed. Making it fair to all the people that have made a card for the challenge...

We reserve the right to remove your entry if we feel it is not appropriate. We are a FUN challenge that is designed for MAGNOLIA FANS and any entry that is not deemed to be 'playing nice' will be deleted. We apologise for the need to add this rule. This is OUR challenge blog and we reserve the right to moderate entries.

We have been busy voting for our latest winner of the Butterfly Challenge. There was some really awesome cards well done everyone!

But before we get to that, we just wanted to remind you all of our rules.... I know nasty things - but it makes it fair for EVERYONE. This past week we had someone link up their card which was beautiful, but it was from an older post on the entrants blog, it was then linked to our blog a few days later. We can tell that this is an older post on the entrants blog because the dates on the entrants posts before and after this particular entrant did not run in date order... So please only link new and current work to our challenge themes.

Now enough of the bad stuff, it's time to announce this fortnight's gorgeous WINNER

Congratulation Asalill!! Your card is beautiful. Can you please send me an email: magnoliadownunder@gmail.com to claim your prize. You can also snag your badge from the side bar for your blog!!!!

And now for our awesome top 5, this fortnight there was no difference between the votes you all ended up with the same amount of votes!!

Welcome back to Magnolia Down Under Challenges and our 5th birthday celebration!

Yes, MDUC is 5 years old this week and we're celebrating with a birthday theme.

We are very generously sponsored by Magnolia Stamps for this challenge and have been given the

Lost and Found Stamp club set to give away!

For this challenge we're going to choose the winner RANDOMLY.

We also have some sad news to share with you. Our gorgeous Debbie P is leaving MDUC, this is the last challenge she will be playing with us.

Debbie has been here since the beginning, she was one of the founders of MDUC.

She leaves a great big hole in our lovely little MDUC family.

Debbie - we wish you all the very best in your future crafty endeavours. We are lucky to have you as our friend and we will never be far. Thank you so much for your commitment over the last 5 years. You have been the glue to hold us all together, our DT big sister. We love you!
